Yes, FP is offering a lower price. I think they learned their lesson on Giant, where they overpaid.

They know there will be plenty out there. LV heavily marketed this with celebrities. That is the first sign of production numbers. You didnt see marketing on the Giant or Jungle like this.

I preordered 3 of each color, expecting to give as gifts, and all 6 came in. I decided not to get them as I had already bought and returned 2 a couple of weeks ago. There will be pieces out there. You may have to be patient, but they want more out for the holidays.

The one on Ebay did not sell for $2450. This seller does this all the time. She buys it herself and then cancels to drive up the price. You will see her relist her items all the time. Also, when you look up sold items, the price is not always the same. When I sell an item at $4000 or best offer and I accept a lower price, the sold price shows as $4000.

Yes I noticed that about best offers that’s why I only listed the one for $2450. But that’s crazy about this seller. I know if they bought it they would have to pay ebays 10% commission which I think is crazy. Never new they could cancel after that.

If this happens, wouldn’t it show that they have all these cancellations in their profile? Or whatever it’s called. Doesn’t eBay check on these sellers and stop them from selling? This seller has over 3k feedback at 100% and has been a mender for 11 years, so it’s not like they keep on changing their user name so they wouldn’t get caught.

I just don't like it and am so over all the hype. There will be pieces out there. You may have to be patient, but they want more out for the holidays.

It is crazy. When you cancel, Ebay refunds the entire fee. Also, what you can do when it is a best offer is offer a $1.00 and then accept the price. It would be a $0.10 commission, so then you just don't cancel and you eat the $0.10, which is no big deal.

You have to be careful about the sold price shown.

Better be accepting the price from someone you know. :lol:

Seriously. I didn’t know that. :smile:

Are pre-orders charged to your credit card in advance? The reason I ask is I was under the impression I was pre-ordering thru my SIL's CA while she was in Vegas, but my card was never charged. Wonder what my chances will be of getting one now.

Not sure about stand-alone stores but my NM CA did not charge my card. It came into store yesterday and she will put through today.

I have been a VIC for almost 25 years, so I had no problem ordering 6. I didnt feel bad telling them I changed my mind because I knew someone would want them.

Usually it is a limit of 2 of each. I was getting 3 of each. I have ordered more than 2 of the same piece in the past with no problem.

However, there is a new policy going into effect in the US, similar to Europe, limiting the amount of pieces you can buy in a period. Not as strict, but they are really going after resellers so they will have to use friends and family to get pieces over the threshold allowed.

My apologies. :smile:

Yes, LV most definitely would be happy with the returns because they were probably out the door the moment they received them.

When I heard that on another thread, about purchasing limited quantities during a certain period, I thought that was ludicrous. I purchased 50 LV items in a 13-month period (not including the 2 MPs, South Bank, and MP Strap). :lol:
Got hooked on the brand. And I have every single item I purchased. Don’t like selling anything, even if I have doubles of some small SLGs. :biggrin:

Sheesh I can’t even stay on ban island. LV would be doing me a favor if they banned me. :lol:

No apology needed. You sound just like me! I am a crazy LV addict and easily order 50-80 plus pieces a year. I hate the thought of selling. I have never been on ban island, but it appears with all the new LV policies, they may help me! I think the order broker is stupid. I think the open stock is a great idea, BUT not when you do not have sufficient product like with the Jungle. The Christmas animation is being done the same way so there will probably be alot of disappointed people during the holidays unless they produce a sufficient amount.
